I'm thinking at this point the plane will never be found. The ocean is way too big and nobody is sure what route it took. Stuff may wash ashore some time from now, confirming it crashed in the ocean somewhere, but that may be it.

I'm assuming if the pilots were responsible for diverting the aircraft, they turned off the plane's entertainment system so the passengers couldn't see the flight map. They then told the passengers it was "broken."

As passengers we need to protect ourselves. Bring a portable GPS device with you, or at least download a compass app to your smartphone. If you find the plane is going south in mid-flight, when it should be going north, something is up. Tell the flight attendant to tell the pilot to turn around. Really, I don't know what a passenger could do, but the pilots can't just assume if they're flying in the dark over the ocean nobody on board will be able to tell they're going the wrong way.

what I would like to know is why they have to put "do not open" on a flight recorder.....you would think they would have it sealed and secured in a way that only the manufacturer or certain people would be able to get access

CNN will keep on this story, that seems 24 x 7, until the ratings drop. Must still be a lot of interest, even though it's not a U.S. airline, happened on the other side of the planet between two foreign cities and involved few U.S. citizens. If it was a foreign crash where they found the wreckage, it wouldn't have got much coverage.

But there has to be a limit where if they keep reporting nothing found, and then fill the news with invited experts giving yet more theories, until it gets old. I think the public is starting to learn the oceans are filled with floating junk, and will tire of the "breaking news" of yet another possible wreckage photographed from a satellite.

I'm not even sure I believe that they actually have this final information. I tend to believe they just want to end the press coverage and all the attention this brings.

Based on what I don't know now, here are my Top 3 options on what really happened:

1) There was some type of malfunction, smoke, fire, or disaster on the plane. Pilots tried to save the plane (despite CNN labeling them as terrorists because one of them decided to take their career home with a simulator - only if others weren't simply clockwatchers that won't do a second of work if it fails to meet their 8 hour schedule).2) The plane was accidentally shot out of the sky by a country that wasn't sure what it was. This explains how countries aren't talking and are delaying with their input on what their satellites state.3) The plane crashed somewhere else besides the Indian Ocean. This is simply because the Malaysian government is so inaccurate and so shady that the opposite of what they say might be the real truth.

Once reports backpedaled on the supposed data that showed the change in route was pre-programmed, I completely stopped believing anything that anyone has to say about events surrounding the aircraft until they find it and get the flight data recorder.

That was a hugely irresponsible piece of information to get wrong and completely discredits all reporting of the incident.

1) They find the plane anywhere else but the Indian Ocean.2) They find out at least 1 person survived somewhere weeks, months, or years from now (somewhat unlikely but possible given every other screwup the investigation).3) They find that this floating debris is either trash, a large creature, or wreckage that solves 1 or more previous cases that went unsolved over the years.4) Or... drumroll... they can't even find the debris physically and they spend weeks on weeks wondering what it was they saw in the satellite images - if anything.

But yeah seeing the reaction of the familes today after some of them supposedly received the news by text message is pretty insane. Can't imagine how they feel.

My theory:

- Plane had 2 (or more) hijackers.. one of them being one of the pilots.- Pilot # 1 kills Pilot # 2, turns off transponder, turns off all communication lines, hijacks plane along with others.- While on route to their destination, whatever that may be, passengers kill all hijackers.- None of the passengers have any flying experiencing, so in process to fly the plane, they go off route.- They crash as a result of either running out of gas or because they tried to turn / fly low / etc.

i read that they haven't found a single piece of the wreckage that can be identified as coming from this plane. So how can they announce that they know for sure it crashed?

I was worried that with all the tracking that gets done, we could actually lose a whole plane. My faith in this overly oppressive information age is restored.

I like to see actual proof. Now they said they have spotted 122 objects floating in the ocean. But who knows what they are?

Now the searchers are back to saying they think it landed somewhere, since they can't find it.
